Video: Mary Katharine Ham on “nekkid” pictures

posted at 9:30 pm on October 10, 2007 by Allahpundit

Do I have that right? Did she say “nekkid” or are my prejudices against southerners playing tricks on my ear?

Lots of drugs and nudity on the menu tonight. If you’re enough of a Natalie Portman fan that you’re willing to endure a Wes Anderson film to see her, ahem, “nekkid,” your feature’s screening now at iTunes. Let me know what I missed.

You are way off. Google tells me that Lewis Grizzard, a writer one cannot accuse of failing to understand the South, was the one who said, as harrison correctly points out above, “Naked means not having any clothes on. “Nekked” is when you don’t have any clothes on and you’re up to no damn good.”

Read HotAir, and get Allah’s measure, for a while, before you go jumping to conclusions.

funny how growing up when I was road trippin I always tried to get rid of my accent so that I wouldn’t be seen as ‘dumb’ and get taken advantage of when I was lost. Now I love the southern accent. It sounds like home.

I’m sure if someone spoke to me this way in my capacity as host, I would ban him without any respect. Besides, I’ve come to view a mild dislike of all things Southern as part of AllahPundit’s parochial, Rust Belt charm.

Imagine, if you will, a sweet little gal like MK. A nekkid moonlight skinnydip in the creek. Just about as close to heaven as an atheist can ever get.

The tangible result of “a nekkid moonlight skinnydip” with “a sweet little gal” may be a child, the next life in this world, rather than a continuation of this life in the next world. I’ll leave it to Christians and “atheists,” respectively, to say which is more divine.

That remark brings back memories. Just as, in Dogma, Loki and Bartelby want to hear the voice of God, I want to hear Allah say, “I feel funny in the pants,” just one more time. Redsugar Muse, pray for us.

I’m siding with Sugar Land on this one. AP’s comment was an egregious example of how lots of you view us down here in the South. It’s ignorant. It’s misleading. It’s uninformed. It’s downright stupid!

Oh, it was a joke? That’s what the liberals always say when you call their bluff. “Just kidding!” Riiight.

So let me just say this about that… I’ll bet your state got chalked up in Al Gore’s column. But us local yokels know a snake oil salesman when we see one. You can thank us idiots that he’ll be in Stockholm on Friday instead of in the Oval Office.

Allah – You’ve missed nothing by skipping Hotel Chevalier. If Natalie shaved her head to bring us the suck that wasV for Vendetta, consider this “nude” hype an escalation of hostilities against the audience.

When they held the Detroit movie critics screening of “Darjeeling Limited,” they showed us the short, and in my critique, I said what needs to be known about the short: Natalie Portman’s naked butt is saggy and has cellulite (not sure if this is reflected in the stills on her site). Yes, no body double was used. MKH is right that it is boring. It’s also pointless. Both of these adjectives apply to Darjeeling, too. Here’s my review of the “film.” But MKH is wrong about one thing, Portman appears very briefly in the boring Darjeeling in one brief scene and her character is constantly referred to in that movie. Not that you care . . . or should. Both the short and the movie stink. Her showing her butt is the only “noteworthy” thing about them, which they clearly did to make people go see these bores.

MKH is right conservatives do need more comedians on there side. Well, I think AP is funny (sometimes).

We conservative comedians need more conservatives in the audience. I did one show a few weeks ago where the crowd was in shocked silence when I mentioned I support our troops.

After the show, I heard one guy tell his wife, “I didn’t come to a comedy show to hear some rightwing gun nut tell me to support President Bush.”
